Laundry

Making laundry this morning. While the dryer is running, I have time to blog...

I am not always happy about the Swedish socialism. But  I consider this one to be one of its most useful achievements: the Laundry room. Several really powerful wash machines and dryers are installed and can be used for free by everyone in the house. Perfect for everyone who can't afford a wash machine by himself.

The laundry room is also the only place where you can actually meet and talk to your neighbors. Today I actually met one elderly Swedish couple. There are not many real swedes living in my ghetto, so the fact I met them is almost surprising in itself. But having swedes starting to talk to you, that was beyond my expectation. Well, I guess that's the social code of this socialist country...
